The Department of Writing and the Career Center teamed to host a
“Dream Big" event for writing majors in late April in the
Holton-Hooker Living Center.
Dauvan Mulally, senior affiliate professor of writing, said the event
was meant to help students dream big and reflect on their career
aspirations with professionals in their field. Eight Grand Valley
alumni from a range of writing industries offered advice on
cultivating these dreams and shared insights about how they were able
to make their own dreams come true.
The writing professionals are listed below.
